After finishing her work, Mingxiu did not return to Yonghe Palace, but instead dined with Kangxi directly in Qianqing Palace.
Looking at the delicious food on the table, Mingxiu felt incredibly guilty.
When she eats by herself, she usually asks the kitchen to cook for her. She doesn't like to waste food, so she only cooks as much as she can eat.
However, Emperor Kangxi usually served dishes according to regulations, and this many dishes were served to only one or two people per meal.
We can't finish it, we simply can't finish it.
Mingxiu ate with Kangxi, but after only one bite of each dish, she felt full. Touching her bulging belly, Mingxiu put down her chopsticks.
When Kangxi saw Mingxiu put down her chopsticks, he also put them down.
In the evening, Emperor Kangxi was in a rare good mood and didn't want to review memorials. After bathing, the two of them sat and lay down, each engrossed in a book.
Mingxiu used to visit the Qianqing Palace frequently, and since Emperor Kangxi had never confiscated her storybooks, there were many of them for her to read, so she was never bored.
Kangxi sat on the couch, gently stroking Mingxiu's head as he lay on his lap; the soft, fluffy hair felt very comfortable to touch.
Kangxi read for a while, then looked down at the storybook with a helpless expression. He looked at Mingxiu, who was engrossed in reading, and said, "You read storybooks every day, don't you get tired of it?"
Mingxiu tilted her head and blinked at Kangxi.
Kangxi's breath hitched; he felt a little breathless under its gaze.
so cute.
"How could I get tired of it? Even if I do, Your Majesty can arrange for someone to buy me some new ones." Mingxiu said, casually tossing the book aside and wrapping her arms around Kangxi's waist, acting coquettishly.
After taking a bath, Mingxiu never liked to tie her hair into various shapes. She simply used a hairpin to casually put her hair into a bun, and the rest of her hair cascaded down her back like a waterfall. At this moment, it covered Kangxi's bright yellow brocade robe, and together with Mingxiu's plain little face, it made her look delicate and lovely.
Kangxi chuckled and pinched his nose.
"She's already a mother, yet she's still so childish."
Mingxiu wrinkled her nose. "Then no matter how old I am, I will always be Your Majesty's little darling."
Emperor Kangxi couldn't help but laugh. "You're such a little darling, how shameless of you!"
Mingxiu chuckled and said, "What's there to be ashamed of? I am Your Majesty's little darling, and Your Majesty is my great darling."
Kangxi was startled by Mingxiu's words. His eyes brightened, and a smile appeared at the corners of his eyes, making him seem even warmer and more charming in the dim light.
Mingxiu was captivated by Kangxi's smile, so she put her arm around his shoulder, leaned in, and kissed his eyes.
"Your Majesty, you are so handsome."
Mingxiu smiled and was about to say something when Kangxi's kiss landed. The two hadn't been intimate for a while, and their passion was so intense that it was hard to resist.
They lit each other's bodies with their hands, but unfortunately Mingxiu's stamina was not good. After a while, she collapsed on Kangxi, panting heavily, her mouth open and breathing slightly.
Kangxi looked at Mingxiu's beautiful and charming face, her eyes filled with a hint of confusion, pure yet alluring, making it impossible to look away.
Kangxi's eyes darkened, and he carried Mingxiu to the bed. Kangxi's bed was larger than theirs, and Mingxiu lay on it casually.
She gently removed her clothes, revealing a lotus-patterned bodice underneath, and Kangxi's kisses gradually descended.
Soon, a beautiful sound rang out from inside the room. It lasted for a long time before the noise stopped. Mingxiu lay exhausted in Kangxi's arms, her eyes still covered by a trace of her underwear, making her look tender and pitiful.
Kangxi felt a surge of desire again, but Mingxiu was too sleepy to keep her eyes open. Unfortunately, he could only stop, hold her, and tidy her up before resting.
When Mingxiu woke up the next day, Kangxi was no longer there. Mingxiu yawned and touched the bed next to her, which was now cold.
After stretching and rolling around on the bed a few times, she finally called for someone to come in and serve "Green Bamboo!"
Upon hearing Mingxiu's voice, Lüzhu walked in with a smile. "Your Majesty, the Emperor has just finished court and is currently busy in the Imperial Study. He said he would go to see the Emperor as soon as Your Majesty gets up."
Mingxiu nodded and asked Lvzhu to tidy her up.
After tidying up and having a simple meal, Mingxiu headed towards the Imperial Study.
The news spread throughout the palace last night that the Emperor had allowed Consort Ming to stay overnight at the Qianqing Palace.
In an instant, everyone knew that Consort Ming and the Emperor had reconciled and Consort Ming had regained favor. Some people in the palace were happy, while others were not.
Several more sets of porcelain and glassware have broken, keeping the Imperial Household Department very busy today as they need to go around replacing them.
Summer heat
Mingxiu nestled in Yonghe Palace, gazing at the weather outside with a pale face and utterly exhausted.
"Your Majesty, please drink some more brown sugar ginger tea. The medicine the imperial physician prescribed for you will take a while to take effect. Drink some more; it will make you feel better," Green Bamboo said with a worried expression.
Mingxiu shook her head weakly, rested it on the beanbag chair, and didn't want to talk.
Since coming here, Mingxiu has never had abdominal pain during her period. She is quite happy that her body is in good condition and does not experience pain during her period.
Unexpectedly, she has been working herself to the bone and now it hurts. Let's go back to yesterday. Yesterday was extremely hot. Even though there was ice in the room, Mingxiu still felt extremely hot, even though it wasn't even the height of summer yet.
But she couldn't stand it anymore, so she asked Green Bamboo to make her a bowl of shaved ice. She only felt a little better after eating a whole bowl of shaved ice.
When Green Xiu tried to prepare it for her, Green Bamboo refused, saying, "Your Majesty, I dare not eat any more. Your period is only a couple of days away. If you eat any more, I'm afraid you'll feel unwell."
Mingxiu smacked her lips and glanced at Green Bamboo, knowing that Green Bamboo would not agree to let her eat again today.
I could only nod in agreement and let them go about their business, while I secretly took out an ice cream from my spatial storage and ate it.
As it turns out, some things are just so unpredictable. I ate it yesterday and it came today, and my stomach hurts terribly.
The only option was to call the imperial physician, but even he couldn't do anything. He could only prescribe some painkillers for her, but it would take some time for the medicine to take effect.
Mingxiu frowned. She had never experienced pain before. What was going on? She clutched her stomach in pain.
When Emperor Kangxi heard the news that the Duke of Yonghe had summoned the imperial physician, he was momentarily flustered and hurriedly rushed over.
When Kangxi arrived, he saw Mingxiu lying on the sofa with a pale face. Kangxi felt as if his heart had been stabbed in an instant.
"What's wrong? Where does it hurt? The imperial physician just came over and said something. Where is the imperial physician?" Kangxi asked sternly as he walked over.
